Speeding Ticket Lawyer Ulster County NY

An Ulster County NY speeding traffic ticket should not be taken lightly. Extra points on your license can result in an increase in your insurance premiums and the possible suspension or revocation of your driver’s license. A loss of license can mean you lose your job and your ability to earn a living and pay your bills.

With the right lawyer, however, it may be possible to reduce the charge to a non-moving violation or get it dismissed. I’m Jonathan D. Katz, Esq. and my firm can represent you with the goals of keeping your driving record as clean as possible, minimizing your points, and keeping you on the road.
